Let's see if I can help...
In the US, at least, there are three lines of the 9-5. The linear and aero have two different versions of a 4-cylinder turbocharged engine, while the arc has a 6-cylinder light turbo. I don't know if in prior years there was an SE 9-5 model...best to ask about that on the 9-5 board.
The 9-3ss is the new (2003+) 9-3 Sports Sedan. It comes in the three versions you mentioned: linear, arc, and vector, all with 4-cylinder engines. The old 9-3 hatchback model, made from 1999-2002, came in three lines as well, but they were the base model, the SE, and the Viggen (ok, someone will argue that the Viggen is an entirely different car, but that's irrelevant right now). So if you hear anything about a 9-3SE, it's from 2002 or earlier.
